The Dutchman — Maan Meyers

THE ENEMY WITHIN THE WALLS OF NEW AMSTERDAM

The fledgling Dutch settlement on the southern tip of Manhattan Island is under siege. The British have sailed into the harbor, threatening war, and tales of treachery and betrayal abound. But for Pieter Tonneman, charged by the Dutch West India Company to uphold the law, the greater danger is the spreading pattern of violence inside New Amsterdam: the apparent suicide of a local tavern owner, the mysterious fire in Jews Alley, and the discovery of a charred corpse amid the ashes....

Although bound by the strictures of her close-knit community and beset by accusations of religious heresy and scandal, the beautiful Racqel Mendoza may hold the key to Tonneman's investigation. With her help, he uncovers a trail of tantalizing clues and gruesome revelations, pointing to the most deadly sin of all ... murder.
